Ok, so you detonate the emp device and deactivate the ones in your backyard at 9:00am. What about the ones that fly in at 10:00am? And 11:00am? Do you just periodically activate the emp device? What about your own electronics. And your neighbors. What would the power company say about your doing this?
What stops the drone makers from hardening the little buggers against EMP? Then what?
How do you stop the undetected ones in public places? Like the store, the gas station, while you’re picking up dog food at the co-op?
The backpack ones won’t look like drones either. They will (and most likely already do, in fact) look like birds of some sort. Are blackbirds and crows going to be endangered species?
What happens when the crazy sex offender over the hill gets these? Or the gang bangers scoping for good houses to hit? Intel from these won’t be limited to the official government orgs. The gang bangers could use the smaller ones to deliver explosives or just knockout gas.
For an exercise, go read smokinggun sometimes. Then imagine all these people had drones. And that’s just the plain old crazies. Wait till the Zetas get them. And the crips and bloods. And MS-13.
And there are plenty of elites who would LOVE (Bill Gates, i’m talking about you!) to eliminate about half of the humans currently alive. Easily done with this tech. Anonymously too.
This tech will change human relations in a way that’s never happened. This is even bigger than using black powder to hurl objects over the next hill. That was hardly anonymous.
You won’t have any idea who or what is happening on your own property. Or even in your own home.
What if an asteroid hits and blows us all to kingdom come? Just do what you can do Dude.
